You have to soak your hands in acetone. My mom has had nails for years and years, and thats what shes learned. Then, go get a manicure to get everything cleaned up a bit. Hope I helped! Happy Spring!

like the girl below me said. you have to soak your nails in nail polish remover for a REALLY long time. about 30 minutes should do it. if by 30 minutes your nails aren't coming off easily, soak them for another 10-20 minutes.

you can go back to the nail salon and they can remove them for you, but all they really do is have you soak your nails in nail polish remover, so really you don't have to go to the salon if you can do it at home.

DONT MESS WITH YOUR NAILS!

lol, i have fake nails as well, and just do not mess with them.

first off, give it a day and you'll easily get used to them. but clipping/filing can damage your nails underneath and it gets messy. trying to pry them off hurts a lot.

at the nail salon, they usually soak your nails and than use a tool to pull them off so its not extremely painful.

if you have acetone nail polish, it does thin the nails out and make it easier to take them off, but its really hard and painstaking and your nail beds are sore for the next few days. if they still bother you after a day or so, go to the nail salon and have them remove them.

Good luck,

-Abby

Try soaking your hands in nail polish remover, it usually dissolves the glue. After a couple minutes they should start to come off, but don't pull at them because it'll mess up your nails and they'll look really weird. Good luck!
